The Raman scattering by acoustic phonons in Si—Si0 5 Ge0 5 superlattices with axis along the (111) direction has been studied. The spectra reveal, in addition to the well-known lines of folded LA phonons, an allowed scattering by folded ТА phonons. This is the first observation of the latter type of scattering.
